At the holding RWY 07 Madang in 1972
Suddenly, the tower goes nuts "All aircraft in the Madang area we are experiencing a severe earthquake, communications maybe interrupted !"
I look down the runway and ****e, its waving like surf and old CMW is rocking from side to side
Ask the tower for TO and refused. I ask again and say "I'd rather watch it all from 500' up actually ta"
The long grass on approach was waving like buggery by now, the man in the old fibro tower must have had thoughts about getting out
It obviously stopped and and things got back to normal, just another Madang guria
Madang tower, FS. Met and general hide out for various alcoholics 1970
